Wednesday Workshops

Marriage and family behind the scenes with Ezra and Kendra StantonIn this workshop, you’ll hear practical wisdom for building a strong marriage and a healthy family in the midst of the chaos. Learn habits that will strengthen your home in the places where real life and ministry meet.
Pulse check with Steve Wexler, DMFTHow is your soul these days? Take an honest look at how life and ministry may be affecting your health and leadership with Steve Wexler, DMFT, a senior pastor and licensed marriage and family therapist with over 30 years of experience in both pastoral ministry and counseling. Learn practical ways to notice warning signs early and respond in healthy, sustainable ways.
Getting your time back with Rick BulmanSometimes the “mundane” tasks of ministry can slowly take over your time. Discover how AI can help with everyday admin tasks, such as responding to emails and messages, organizing and planning. Rick Bulman, founder of churchhub.ai, will teach you simple ways to save time and reduce the load of administrative tasks without needing to be tech-savvy.
The experience we create with Mosaic Pro EventsEvery church creates an experience, whether we plan for it or not. Learn how audio, visuals, lighting and thoughtful planning shape what people hear, notice and take in, no matter the size of your church or budget. Hear from the trusted production team behind Foursquare Connection as they share practical ways to reduce distraction and help the message to be heard.
Be ready to baptize kids and teens with the Holy Spirit with NextGen panelMany leaders want kids and teens to experience the Holy Spirit, but are not sure how to guide those moments. Learn how to talk about and lead these experiences in ways that make sense for different ages, from preschool through high school. Walk away with language and tools you can actually use with the kids and teens you lead.
Building a high-trust culture with Tim PoetzlDoes your church have a high-trust culture? Trust shapes how teams communicate, make decisions and stay healthy over time. Learn practical ways to strengthen trust, address breakdowns early and lead through tension with clarity and care. Walk away with tools you can use with staff, volunteers and leadership.
Making space for spiritual gifts with Ben DixonSpiritual gifts are part of the life of the church, but many leaders feel unsure how to help people recognize and use them well. Learn practical ways to equip people to step into their gifts so the church functions with greater clarity, health and purpose.
Reaching near and far with Kaj MartinWhile we are often tempted to become “comfortable” in our churches, staying safe rarely leads to expansion. Jesus instructed the church in Acts to bring the gospel to those near and far. This workshop will help you identify the next ground you and your congregation are being called to take, and enable you to pastor and lead whoever God calls you to, whether near or far.
From vision to movement with Ryan KimWhenever God gives you a dream of how you can partner with Him in His kingdom work, you can be sure the road will not be easy. In this workshop, Ryan Kim will share his church-planting story to demonstrate some helpful principles that can help you bridge the gap between the dream God has given you and the many obstacles that stand in your way. Discover how to see your vision come to life through small, intentional steps that create real momentum.
Positioned for spiritual warfare with Bob Hunt and panelAs pastors and leaders, it’s important that we have a balanced, scriptural perspective on engaging in spiritual warfare. In this workshop, Bob Hunt will moderate a discussion with some of the authors and contributors to Positioned for Breakthrough (Foursquare Missions Press, August), including Jerry Stott, Ph.D., Leslie Keegel, Angie Richey, Ph.D., and Ty Austin. Topics of discussion will include dealing with spiritual warfare in the local church, what a deliverance session looks like, the difference between being possessed and oppressed, and much more.
